Los Monteros, Marbella East is a sought after residential area made up of elegant villas and exclusive, beautifully maintained private complexes offering top quality apartments and penthouses, all situated just outside Marbella, only a 10-minute drive from the centre of town and 20 minutes’ drive from Malaga airport.
The area attracts both permanent residents and holiday visitors with its peaceful location which is also close enough to the busy nightlife of Marbella and Puerto Banus to the west, and the calmer social scene at Cabopino just off to the east, as well as its magnificent white sandy beaches, which are some of the finest in Marbella.

Los Monteros is divided into 2 very distinct neighbourhoods: the beachside complexes and the mountainside urbanizations, and so caters for all tastes and budgets.
Sitting in a front line beach location with uninterrupted views out towards the Mediterranean Sea, Los Monteros Playa is an exclusive, gated and secure development offering luxury apartments and penthouses in luxury surroundings.
Great care was taken during the building stages to ensure a high quality product upon completion, not only with regard to materials and finishes but also with regard to the lifestyle on offer – a low-rise complex with only 60 spacious apartments sitting in an oasis of subtropical gardens with water features, ponds and the use of decorative wooden features throughout.
The residential complex of La Morera practically sits on the beach, and has private direct access to the sandy shore. Properties in this first class development enjoy breath-taking views of the Mediterranean Sea from their spacious terraces. The community offers residents top quality facilities such as: beautiful gardens with swimming pool, fitness gym, indoor pool and sauna and, of course the all-important 24-hour security.
The residential urbanization of Los Monteros Palm Beach is also a front line beach development with direct access, and offering high end apartments with top quality finishes, lifestyle facilities and safety measures to the discerning buyer.
Approximately 4km inland on the mountainside of the main A340 motorway is the residential development of Los Monteros Hill Club. Thanks to its elevated position, the views over the mountainside down towards the sea and further on out over the Marbella coast line as far west as Gibraltar, are no less than spectacular. On a clear day, the North African coastline can also be seen on the horizon.
Marbella East is also a preferred destination for those looking for easy access to some of Marbella´s great golf courses, and Rio Real is a lovely residential community built around the Rio Real Golf Course. The Rio Real Hotel is a small boutique hotel within this community and provides 29 exclusive golf suites and a wellness centre. Properties in Rio Real are popular due to the tranquillity of the area and its proximity to the sandy beaches and to the Marbella town centre.
These lovely neighbourhoods are peaceful and, although surrounded by nature, they are still a convenient distance and easy drive away from Elviria which has a busy commercial centre offering shops, banks and supermarkets. For those evenings when you prefer less hustle and bustle or simply prefer to stay a little closer to home, Elviria also offers a number of excellent restaurants, cafés and bars, for a more casual lunch or night out.
